Select a drawing tool in the left toolbar (we like the brush) and a colour you like from the Brush Properties section on the far right, then sketch your first storyboard scene in the Panel! You can draw in either bitmap or in vector, so let’s add a bitmap drawing layer to start off with your rough sketches by clicking the icon at the bottom of the layers view in that column just to the right of your active Panel. Once you’ve added a panel, now you can simply select a brush tool on the left-hand toolbar and have at it.
If you’ve goofed and stuck a panel in the wrong place, you can also go to the Thumbnail view and grab the top left on the tab where the little bumps are and drag it in between two other Panels. Just hit the Duplicate Selected Panels button in the Storyboard toolbar. You can also create a Panel by going to the top menu and selecting Storyboard > New > New Panel or use the keyboard shortcut P.Īs you might imagine, these Panels can be duplicated to make it easier for you to make small edits to the detail between scenes or shots. You’ll see it pop up in the Thumbnail view below Storyboard Pro calls these Panels and you can create one by going to the top storyboard toolbar and clicking on the New Panel icon. Forget about all those for a second, we need to find you a canvas.
Now you’re in and there are suddenly a million buttons in front of you. Select your desired resolution or make a custom one to see the measurements it gives you and when you’re happy, click Create Project to begin! Panels Something like HDTV is a safe bet but you might have a different size in mind. Use the dropdown menu to select which resolution you wish to use. The last and most important bit of the creation process is choosing a Camera Size. You may wish to put some additional project information in the Project Subtitle section, too.
Next, choose a project directory, this will be the file folder where the project will live. Stick in a Project Name (which will become the filename) and a Project Title (which will appear on PDF exports). To find the latter, just click New at the top right or go to the top menu and select File>New. The Welcome screen and the New Project window serve the same purpose here.
Right, you’ve launched Storyboard Pro, you’re grasping your stylus in anticipation and you’re ready to sketch, but before you do, there’s a little admin to sort out! It can be a little daunting for beginners, and although we found about 6 different tutorials for various versions, in different languages and with video, text and even interactive components, for ease and brevity we’ve cherry picked some of the basic info you need to make your storyboard, without confusing you with loads of unnecessary info. We use Toon Boom for a lot of our animation, and Storyboard Pro is a tool that saves us time and gives us a bit more flexibility when it comes to sketching out our ideas.
